PBB is a much more different take and that's probably why people prefer it over pp. however it's far from perfect. The main problem is the huge levelling curve around mid game. Partly due to max levels are set until the game is made further. This is to prevent players from sweeping every thing as it can take forever for updates to role out. The levelling curve affects new players the most like me. I only started PBB in June this year so there was a lot of grind. I have played as far as I possibly can now.

Another problem is the different game mechanics. Roam legend near impossible to find, breeding is a nightmare and most items are overpriced. Also no move tutors, missing tm and items.

Updates are slow and you'll spend a lot of time with nothing to do.

TBH I prefer the core games as most parts of the game are more reasonable despite not being perfect. PBB isn't perfect, but you can definitely say it's better than PBB by a landslide. Plus, it's ROBLOX and there aren't really that many people ACTIVELY working on PBB, but I see your point.

Also, the possible gym types have been updated! You said PBB twice. Anyway I completely understand why updates can be slow and parts of the game are super grindy without robux. It's a way for the debs to make money but I feel there are other ways for them to make money other than making the game Grindy because no one likes grindy games.

Some people say it's harder but really it's just easy but extremely repetitive and boring.

I'm still gonna choose PBB against other Pokemon games on ROBLOX though. I haven't played PBB in a while because I'm bored and I can't do anything at the moment. AND i like grindy games.
